Freight Tech Firm Touts Major AI-Driven Efficiency Gains
Freight Technologies, Inc. reports that its AI-native solutions have produced significant productivity improvements. The company claims the technology has enabled a 15-fold increase in domestic efficiency and a 5-fold gain in cross-border logistics operations. The AI also reportedly accelerated booking times and more than doubled internal productivity.
- The efficiency gains are attributed to a suite of proprietary AI-powered software solutions, including Fr8App (for cross-border spot service), Fr8Fleet (for dedicated capacity), and Waavely (for ocean shipments). These platforms are enhanced by AI features like Zayren Pro, which provides predictive freight rate pricing, and Fleet Rocket, a transportation management system (TMS). - Internally, the company now manages a higher volume of shipments with approximately 50% of its previous operations headcount after staff reductions in 2025. This move is part of a broader strategy to create a leaner organization where software performs most of the work, positioning the company for scalable growth. - The company's AI architecture is designed for autonomous, decision-oriented systems that drive execution rather than just record it. For large operators managing over 3,500 loads annually, this has reduced booking times from hours to minutes. - Freight Technologies (Fr8Tech) is strategically focused on the U.S.-Mexico cross-border shipping corridor, a market with an estimated $385 billion in annual freight spending. The AI tools are specifically designed to handle the complexities of this market, including automating document validation for 5x faster processing. - The company is transitioning to a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, with Zayren Pro contributing to its subscription-based revenue. This aligns with their stated strategic goal of becoming a software-first logistics provider. - Despite the operational improvements, the company's stock (NASDAQ: FRGT) has faced significant challenges, declining 94.18% over the past year as of January 2026. For its most recent fiscal year, the company reported total revenue of $13.7 million and a net income loss of $5.6 million. - Recent corporate actions include the launch of the enhanced Zayren Pro platform in January 2026, a two-year agreement with Marksman for the Fleet Rocket TMS in February 2026, and a deal to acquire JAK Solar in December 2025. - The company is led by CEO Javier Selgas, who has over 15 years of experience in technology and digital marketing. The management team also includes COO Luisa Lopez, who previously served as a Director at Landstar with a focus on the Mexican market.
